[QUOTE="Philip J Theodhor, post: 1746186, member: 111223"] I think that this will help. As brass has been shot out any rifle it will conform to said rifles interior chamber dimensions, and even closing the bolt on a cartridge case that has already been fired just to see if it will fit may feel tight. Usually the brass will flow towards the bolt face making for hard extraction problems.(yes your brass will now be custom fit to your chamber. Even if you FL resize or just neck size your brass it may not fit into your weapon without an unduly amount of applied pressure I have found that Redding manufactures what is called a body die. I you use this die in conjunction with the competition stepped shell holder set, well you can kill to birds with one stone. Go to Redding's web site for details. Question do you have a cartridge overall head space Gage in this caliber for your rifle? If you do I would be very curious to see whether or not your round does bottom out in the Gage or does it 's head protrude from sitting flush ? Assuming that your trim to length is within specs. (I strongly suggest that you purchase one) If this is indeed the case your problem has now been revealed. If it has not then you may have a stacked tolerance issue with either the the rifles chamber, throat or barrel.
